We celebrated 'Campus Christmas' yesterday with all of the Precinct partners Batchelor Institute of Indigenous Tertiary Education RTO 0383, Centre for Appropriate Technology, Desert Knowledge Australia, Ekistica and our tenants sharing a delicious lunch provided by Treat Me Good Cafe & Catering.

We will be closing down for the holiday period from COB this Friday December 19 until January 5.

Wishing everyone a merry and safe festive season and we look forward to welcoming everyone back in 2026!

It was a privilege and a pleasure to host His Honour, the Administrator of the Northern Territory and Ms Ruth Jones for a walking tour of the Desert Knowledge Precinct. It was a wonderful opportunity to share the stories and vision of the Precinct, our current and future priorities.

It was a great opportunity to share the individual and collective work we are all doing in renewable energy, education, training, regional workforce development, the space industry and more.
